The ship was nice, clean and new. No long lines at buffet and food was of good quality (deserts were hit or miss). We tried the food in all of the 4 non premium dining halls and liked Cyprus (Mediterranean) the best exclusive menu choices & ambiance, followed by Normandie (French), followed by Cosmopolitan (new American) and Tuscan (Italian) least favorite both menu choices and decor.
Getting on the ship and off the ship including tender was done very well and one of the best I have experienced. The ship never felt cramped (might not have been full) but there were more kids than normal due to the promotion. Our cabin was a ocean view stateroom comped by the casino, the room was well furnished and adequately spacious for two of us. However, we head grinding noise from above (like chairs or tables were being dragged) especially at night.
Doing anything on 16th floor was a challenge especially at night with strong wind and this is where the movies were projected at night.
Worst slot casino payout on the sea I have ever been and this was an opinion shared by many who were the casino playing both tables and slots. I played exclusively slots on all but one night (7 night cruise) and sunk several K without hitting any kind of jackpot once and didn't see anyone else hit one either during the time I was there. However, the casino staff was courteous.
